Justin Herrera uses the RotoViz tools to bring you the top plays and some under-the-radar options for the FanDuel main slate.

This weekly article is a deep dive into some guys with exploitable matchups, something to prove, or are just great deals on FanDuel. The goal is always to help you win some money on a week-to-week basis. Barring that, at least you can have some fun playing DFS, in which case this article can help you get started on the road to profitability. Using RotoViz’s excellent tools, I’ll go position by position and offer both a top play and a sleeper pick based on Week 11 matchups in FanDuel.

Quarterback

GENO SMITH – $7,300

The Seattle Seahawks need to win this game to have the best chance to get into the playoff. Insert Geno Smith, who has been the unlikely injection of QB play that this team needed in 2023. Smith has played extremely well, with nine top-12 performances and overall through 17 weeks he’s QB6. The Rams have already given up a monster game to Smith this year, allowing 367 passing yards, three touchdowns, and only one interception.

Year	Week	Team	VS.	PPR	PPR Rk	EP	EP Rk	FPOE	FPOE Rk
2022	13	SEA	LAR	28.65	3	23.6	4	5.1	5
2022	14	LV	LAR	3.95	26	12	26	-8	23
2022	15	GB	LAR	13.15	23	29.4	4	-16.2	32
2022	16	DEN	LAR	12.65	23	17.9	17	-5.2	20
2022	17	LAC	LAR	20.15	9	16.2	24	4	8
Average				15.7	23	19.8	17	-4.1	28

The Rams have been solid in the past four games averaging 12 fantasy points to the QB position. While this will be a hard-fought divisional game I will be putting my chips on Smith to hit this week because of his talent, and Seattle’s desire to control their destiny.
